The cash is part of the 23.29 billion naira bribe given to Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) officials to change the results of the 2015 election.
Three RECs have been named in the scandal. One of them is dead. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has seized two choice shopping malls from a REC Gesil Khan.
Besides, the account of the REC with about 59 million naira has been frozen by the anti-graft agency.
A retired INEC official, Sani Isa, was questioned for over 406 million naira bribe allegedly collected on behalf of the deceased REC in Kano State, Mukaila Abdullahi. The number of INEC staff invited and questioned by the EFCC has risen to 100.
